Algeria coach Rabah Saadane insists there is no better player than Wayne Rooney in the world today.

Saadane said: "If Rooney is not the best yet, then he can become that man - and very soon. He is one of the top two in the world. I see a player who is growing day after day, getting better all the time.

"Now he is at the summit. It is not just the goals and the talent, he is also at the top of his maturity - that is what defines a great player."
